New TAMA Snare Drums
The S.L.P. Sonic Stainless Steel snare drum features a 6.5”x14”, 1.2mm, stainless steel shell which delivers brightness, projection, and a huge supply of cutting tone.
The authoritative sound is supported by TAMA’s new 3mm, 10-hole Steel Might Hoops, offering extremely solid tuning and ample amounts of focused attack. Overall, this new entry to the S.L.P. series delivers an assertive tonal voice, and its 6.5” depth affords it a wide tuning range, offering an array of stylistic applications.
Warm and balanced, with striking clarity and excellent projection, the S.L.P Bold Spotted Gum snare drum leaves nothing on the table when it comes to a complex, versatile snare tone. The 6.5”x14”, 6mm, 9ply 100% Spotted Gum shell delivers a full, warm sound with a diverse dynamic range, lending itself to a variety of expressive playing styles. The 10 hole, 2.3mm Steel Might Hoops provide solid tuning and a robust attack, with added wooliness from the Spotted Gum shell.
